That said, can some of that be extremely toxic? Of course it can. To me, no more so than things like AB FS OOP and suiciding netters or "griefing." Things I explained to you as being toxic behavior. This is also in that realm, and the players here tend to fight fire with an inferno. While people will get offended by toxicity, the reality is its a choice you're allowed to make here. When they saw you willing to stop at nothing to destroy them, they too will stop at nothing to destroy you back. No one said suiciding netters was cheating to you. And as such, no one is saying espionage is either. If your country hasn't turned purple, you haven't cheated.

But the idea that you were just gonna run rampant making your own meta that you're going to force old heads into is a farce and was never going to happen. Frankly, you got beat at your own game here. None of the old players were going to give you props for attempting to slander and destroy a long dominant tag through toxic methods. They were always going to see your toxic methods and do them waaaaay better and be waaaay worse. Any EE history buff knows that's how it goes. If you wanna play in the mud, you better expect to get dirty.
